There are several ways that you can take a screen shot:

Windows Vista/XP/Windows 7:

1. On your keyboard you should have the button "Print Screen". What this allows you to do is to take snapshot of the the desktop and put it in the computer clipboard. To paste it in a word document you will open the Word document application and right click on your mouse and click paste or for keyboard shortcut Ctrl+V

2. Open Microsoft Word 2007/2010 and on the ribbon bar click the Insert tab and click "Screenshot". You will then select whatever area you wish to make a screensot and word will automatically import the image into the word document.

Mac Computer:
